INDIAN RIVER — Showcasing their most powerful rushing attack of the season, the Inland Lakes Bulldogs captured a 56-30 homecoming victory over Central Lake on Friday night. The Bulldogs moved to 4-2, 3-1 Ski Valley North, on the season. "It was our best rushing night we've had in quite some time," Inland Lakes coach Stan Schramm said of his team's effort. "Our offense was really clicking all night, and they (Central Lake) couldn't stop us. Our kids executed, so I'm very proud of them for that, and I'm very excited to get this victory."Leading the potent Inland Lakes rushing attack was Trevor Mallory, who had 164 yards and scored three touchdowns, while teammate Daniel Flowers rushed for 194 yards and two touchdowns, and quarterback Todd Athey had 101 rushing yards to go along with a touchdown run and a 12-yard touchdowns pass. The Bulldogs held a 28-12 lead at halftime before blowing the game open in the second half. "It was a big win, especially on our homecoming," Schramm added. "All week these boys prepared well and did an excellent job. They stayed focused all week, practiced hard, didn't get distracted with homecoming week, and it really showed. I told them to enjoy this win for the weekend, but we know we have to go play Pellston next Friday, and that game will be huge."Flowers also added a 72-yard kickoff return for a touchdown, while Christian Wallace rushed for 58 yards and a touchdown.
